Summer's Awakening

I couldn’t believe how my life had been since I left home at eighteen to go to college in the big city. I studied my brain out to achieve a three point five average for the four year course in management. In the whole four years I only attended one frat party, or for that matter any type of party.

Worse. I heard that your college years were supposed to be when you found out about your sexual preference and got experiences that you would remember all your life. What a joke, my first year I was attracted to my dorm mate who taught me about lesbian only to turn her back on me.

I quickly rebounded in year two going with a guy on the softball team, which I always thought of as a sport. For Richard ‘Dickless” Forks, who could be sent to the floor by having a strong breath blown on his balls, it was the reason he never got the girl for more than a few minutes to touch!So sexual experiences in college made me consider going to the lab and asking one of the nerds there if he could sterilize me but make sure I could at least call myself a female.

The last two years I found a little janitorial closet to hangout in morning, noon and night. Pedro Fernandez, the janitor, was one hundred and ninety-nine percent gay, so I had no reason to fear being molested unless he took a liking to a piece of clothing I owned.

Graduation was not worth being there. The Dean of Students for some reason, skipped my name. Then when he went to correct himself he actually said over the microphone, “Are you sure that Summer girl attended here?”

Prom Night was a joke of being alone in the janitor’s closet watching the only station a six inch black and white portable TV could pick up, a box of Twinkies and a flat of twenty-four Mountain Dew. So didn’t I have memories of college that made getting student loans totally twenty-four thousands dollars worth getting.

So here I was. Summer Knight, yes that was the name my parents who were in their twenties gave me, at twenty-four years old in the same city I attended college in. With nothing to show for her college years and her second month rent due in two days, with no way to pay it!

I had the same laptop that I used in college set up in my guest room, since mine was something no one should show off in a dating profile, wondering if I was doing the right thing to get me noticed?
